Last Portland Fun

Here are a couple of places we wanted to make sure to get in before went home.

This is the Stepping Stone Cafe, home of the Mancakes. We saw this place on Man vs Food and had to try it. It was really good, Chad said it was the best chicken fried steak he has ever had, and that is saying a lot, he gets that everywhere we go.

The boys loved the huge pancakes.

We also went to the Discovery Village in Salem. It was formerly the home of A.C. Gilbert, inventor of the erector set, and is now a cool hands on place for kids to play and learn.

This is the China room.

We had our ultrasound just before we left OR. It is the best to see the baby. Everything looked perfect! We are so excited.

The Sun is Shining!

The sun was finally out in Oregon so we headed to the park to feed the ducks and play in the grass.

Aunt Lex and Peter Visit

Lex and Peter came to visit right before we moved back to NM. We had a lot of fun with them, unfortunately we didn't get very many pictures with them.

We went to OMSI and they went on the submarine tour with Chad and Keston.

Water fun in the science garden at OMSI.

These are real fetuses preserved to show all the months of development. Interesting but creepy.

If Lex and Peter got any good pictures when they were here I will definitely post them later. It was great getting to spend time with them!

Birthday Fun!

Grammy and Rue Rue came this weekend to help us celebrate Calon's 2nd Birthday. We had lots of fun doing Calon approved activities. Playgrounds (both indoor and outdoor), cake, donuts, presents, books, kitchen toys, playing Monster Jam races, reading and Mario cart wii made Calon a very happy 2 year old!
